Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 6.118 Sentence Boundaries skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery

The cafeteria was noisy. Students talking over the announcements the speakers crackled.

Which revision best fixes all sentence boundary errors?

AThe cafeteria was noisy, students talking over the announcements the speakers crackled.

BThe cafeteria was noisy. Students talking over the announcements, the speakers crackled.

CThe cafeteria was noisy; students talking over the announcements. The speakers crackled.

DThe cafeteria was noisy; students talked over the announcements, and the speakers crackled.

Solution & Explanation:‘Students talking...’ is a fragment because it lacks a main verb. Change it to 'students talked' and use a semicolon plus a comma-and-conjunction to separate the independent clauses.

Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery

The guide pointed to the map she traced our route with her finger, slowly.

Which revision best fixes the run-on and keeps the rhythm of the sentence?

AThe guide pointed to the map, she traced our route with her finger, slowly.

BThe guide pointed to the map. She traced our route with her finger slowly,

CThe guide pointed to the map; she traced our route with her finger, slowly.

DThe guide pointed to the map because she traced our route with her finger, slowly.

Solution & Explanation:Both halves are independent clauses. A semicolon separates them clearly, and the closing adverb stays with the second action.

Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery

I planned to bike to school instead it started snowing before dawn.

Which revision best corrects the run-on and punctuates the transition word?

AI planned to bike to school, instead it started snowing before dawn.

BI planned to bike to school; instead, it started snowing before dawn.

CI planned to bike to school instead, it started snowing before dawn.

DI planned to bike to school; instead it started snowing, before dawn.

Solution & Explanation:‘Instead’ works as a conjunctive adverb here. Use a semicolon before it to join two independent clauses and a comma after it.
